Big turnout in Austin for the Biker Awareness Day on Sunday...
Most of us where wearing our "Can You see Me Now" T-shirts...
Over 150 bikes of all shapes and sizes showed up (one report said over 200!). Here's two from the 80's. The Goldwing was mighty clean...
Only one Valkyrie showed up! I was all ready to recruit folks to the VRCC, too...
She did draw a crowd most of the morning...
Of course, the usual questions were asked from other folks...I did answer politely:
"Actually, it's a Honda"
"No, they stopped making them in '03"
"Yes, six cylinders and six carbs"
"Yeah, very smooth"
and so on...
The news media was there as well. Here's their take...
